Elder Cache Troy Johnson

  Yep, you read that correctly. The 21st of August I hit a full year on the mission. It's so crazy how fast time has gone by so let's talk about it.  Mission stats:  Companions-7 Areas-4 People helped with baptism-7  all nighters- 8, nah just kidding 0... This week we had a zone conference and it was pretty fun. We talked about the importance of helping people come to church and the importance of going to church. So, this week we invited a ton of people to church and we had 5 people show up! One of them is a beast.  We found this one guy contacting in the streets and he has potential. He's 79 years old and hasn't come to church in a LONG time. He pulled up to church and afterwards he told us that he is going to keep coming to church and share the whole thing with his family so hopefully they are all going to come to church this next week!  Alright all right, I know a lot of you are wondering how I am with my health. I got some tests done and they all c...

 Elder Johnson hit his year mark! Here is the Facebook post I wrote: Elder Johnson hit his year mark today! So many emotions have been running through my heart as we approached this day. The strongest emotions are joy and gratitude that he’s been kept safe and healthy. I’m also immensely proud of him and all that he has done. He is now fluent in Spanish and loves serving the people of Ecuador. He’s grown so much physically AND spiritually. He has definitely lost himself in the work as he serves and loves the people of Ecuador. It is so nice to get to talk to him every week. I took a screenshot every time we talked to him and tried to fit it all into one post! Cache is such an amazing example to me of someone who has sacrificed so much for something he loves more. I have seen blessings and miracles for him and us this past year. I am so excited to be on the countdown now. Love, MOM

  Ayo wsg yall, I haven't written in a little while but let's get right into it. So for the past 3 weeks I have had pretty bad stomach problems. I ate something I wasn't supposed to and have been throwing up randomly for the past 3 weeks. We went to the hospital to do some tests AND... We still haven't received any answers 🤗. That's the beauty of being in a 3rd world country. I think I have a parasite though.  They did some tests on me by taking my blood and another interesting test. (If you want to know the other test message me privately cuz I aint writing it down here lol) So yeah, I wasn't able to leave the house for the past 2 days so that I could rest. I haven't been feeling good at random times during the day which has affected the work. (Please pray for me) 2 of our baptismal dates didn't pass their interview so we had to push the date back a little. Please pray for them as well so that they can receive answers to the questions that they have so...
